Hey everybody!

I was wondering if anybody knows of a US National grid Dynamic Service layer, that drills down more than this one:

NGA_US_National_Grid (MapServer)

If not, is there a locator that I can access that allows putting in National Grid coordinates? I know that in ArcGIS Desktop you can use the "Go to XY" tool and put in USNG coordinates.

Thanks!

Tim-  I don't have an answer for you, but I'm glad ( in a dark sort of way) that you experienced the same thing I did!

That should just about do it....

I know, I'm surprised they don't have it to at least 10m * 10m...

ESRI have a sample service set up here that converts MGRS (which I think USNG is the same) --> Lat/Long through the REST endpoint:

http://serverapps101.esri.com/arcgis/rest/services/MGRS/GeocodeServer/findAddressCandidates?

i.e:

MGRS to Lat/Long

http://serverapps101.esri.com/arcgis/rest/services/MGRS/GeocodeServer/findAddressCandidates?MGRS=41r...

Lat/Long to MGRS

http://serverapps101.esri.com/arcgis/rest/services/MGRS/GeocodeServer/reverseGeocode?location=64.5%2...

It may be worth talking to your ESRI rep to see if you can get a copy of the service

Anthony I think you are right, Locator/MGRS (GeocodeServer)‌ according to the description it includes USNG
